So when I first ordered my parts for my computer I thought I could just reuse an old hard drive with and OEM version of windows 7. Long story short now I have a computer with everything but an OS. I was wondering if I could install a version of linux through USB and it looks like I can. But I have a few concerns:
1. Will my computer be able to go to bios even if the hard drive still has the OEM version of windows?
2. If I can can get to the bios without deleting windows will I still be able to overwrite the hard drive's OS with linux?
3. When I boot linux will I be able to set up my computer from there?
I guess the biggest question is can I install linux without deleting windows from the hard drive and get it to work?
